The
imposing Victoria Tower on Castle Hill overlooks Huddersfield
and was built just before 1900 to celebrate the 60th
anniversary of Queen Victoria's reign. The tower stands
900ft above sea level and can be seen from miles around.
it stands on an old Stone and Iron Age site. Inside
the tower is an exhibition which holds the history for
the last 4,000 years. The name Castle Hill comes from
when the De Laci family built a Norman castle on the
hill.

The
Lowdown...

| There
are 165 steps in the tower, but the view from it is well
worth the climb. Anyone who travels to the top because
they know there's a pub up there will find it has been
demolished. |
